Thanks, JZ. I couldn't remember those details, but it just shouldn't be that way.
Wash: I didn't think you were one for rituals and such. Mal: I'm not, but it'll keep the others busy for a while. No reason to concern them with what's to be done.

This seems like a really good time for me thank you, Suzii (when you see this), for giving me Dr Baker's info however many years ago. She's a good one and has never so much as blinked twice when I've asked for anything. She even called in additional pain meds for me when the jerk endodontist only gave me basically Tylenol for dry socket.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
We all need to give ourselves a break. This is home and safe. Everything is ok here.
Just on Monday (Jesus, that was a long time ago), we had a thing at work commemorating the Haiti earthquake, and someone said that people in the office then were very gentle with one another, because everything was so hard. I say yes, and also be gentle to ourselves.

Had a pissy customer who ended the call with "I see you're having a user conference next month. Who do I talk to so I can be a guest speaker and tell everyone just how wonderful your company is?" I cheerfully told him he could find contact information on our website.

When I was in the hospital after having my appendix removed, the nurse on shift in the morning wouldn't give me the prescribed painkiller. I spent most of the day - after having an organ removed - in pain. Couldn't get the prescription filled at the hospital pharmacy, so I had to get a cab, go to my usual drug store, wait while they filled it, and then catch another cab home.

I had the same thing happen after my C-section, Toddson. One of the lovely nurses actually said to me, when I asked for my prescribed pain meds, "You need to toughen up. You're a mother now." WTF ever.

After my d&c I had to go to the pharmacy myself rather than send TCG because I needed to show my license for the perscription pain meds.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Nurses at the hospital told my mother she couldn't have pain meds the second night after her knee replacement. Even though they were prescribed.

What, are the hospital staff selling patients' drugs on the black market?
I wish I could be surprised at the thought.
